Quotes About Labs

With genetic manipulation you could quite easily create an efficiently transmittable version of H5N1. Swap a human receptor binding domain from a human flu virus into an H5 backbone and you'd improve transmission efficiency enormously. The last couple of years, they've been doing that in labs all over the world to try to anticipate what a human transmissible H5N1 would look like.
~ Peter May
My wife and I volunteer for the Guide Dog Foundation, and we have two giant labs.
~ Yul Vazquez
My first movie, 'Heathers,' had played at the festival, so I had a little bit of a Sundance connection, but I didn't really know about the Labs.
~ Michael Lehmann
Right now there are some fifteen thousand scientists authorized to work with deadly pathogens, but there are zero federal agencies charged with assessing the risks of all of these labs, let alone even keeping track of their number. As a consequence, there've been countless reports of mishandling of contagious pathogens, of vials gone missing, of poor records.
~ James Rollins
I think it killed the performance on a lot of the systems in the Labs for years because everyone had their own copy of it, but it wasn't being shared, and so they wasted huge amounts of memory back when memory was expensive.
~ Bill Joy
How would he manage if he became blind? At least if he was blind he could get a guide dog - there was an upside to everything, a silver lining of helpful Labs and noble German Shepherds eager to be his eyes. What if he became deaf? They had dogs for the deaf, too, but Martin wasn´t sure what they did. Tugged at your sleeve a lot probably while looking meaningfully at things.
~ Kate Atkinson
The most ubiquitous form on the mainland is crystal, which is often manufactured with such ingredients as decongestants and brake cleaner in what the DEA has called "Beavis and Butt-head" labs in homes and garages. Mobile, or "box," labs in campers and vans, and labs in motels, have been discovered in every state. In 2006, Bill Maher quipped, "If Americans get any dumber about science, they won't even be able to make their own crystal meth.
~ David Sheff
since I know for a fact that her class had been in the physics labs when Mr. Fibs got attacked by the bees he thought he'd genetically modified to obey commands from a whistle. (Turns out they only respond to the voice of James Earl Jones.)
~ Ally Carter
The committee's finding that China stole sensitive technology from U.S. weapons research labs is alarming.
~ Charles Bass
Since 1998, the Administration has begun to upgrade counterintelligence and security at U.S. weapons labs.
~ Charles Bass
The Deep Web contains shockingly valuable information. Can you imagine how cancer research would blossom if every researcher had instant access to every research paper done by every single university and research lab in the world?
~ John McAfee
The next generation of innovators, who need neutrality the most, are not at the bargaining table. They're hard at work in their labs or classrooms, dreaming of the next big thing, and hoping that the Internet is as open to them as it was to the founders of Google.
~ Edward Felten
Wheat is blond in the Steppe, yellow in the Prairie. Algae in the labs is many different brownish greens.
~ Kim Stanley Robinson
You wouldn't believe the things that go missing in these labs. Remind me to tell you the story about the radioactive spider sometime.
~ Deborah Blake
The early 1990s was a time of great advancements in precooked bacon technology. Pork producers, food labs, and agricultural schools such as Iowa State University began investing substantially in precooked R&D.
~ David Sax
I ended up working in Michigan for a young company called Sycor out of Michigan, worked there, and that company got bought by Northern Telecom. We became the Bell Northern Research Labs of Northern Telecom.
~ Ram Shriram
labs make errors, for instance, in collecting or handling a sample, by accidentally mixing or swapping samples, or by misinterpreting or incorrectly reporting results.
~ Leonard Mlodinow
After I finished my degree in India in 1980, I came to the U.S. to get a master's, and I was teaching quantum physics to freshmen. As I got my bearings as to what goes on in labs, I understood that to teach, you have to learn.
~ Dinesh Paliwal
The dynamic range of the digital camera is pretty crappy compared to film, but now film is not great because the labs have closed. It's going to hurt a lot of the movies that we did in this gap because I think they are going to look very old very soon.
~ Emmanuel Lubezki
In the ideal classroom, the teacher is either spending all of their time doing deep interventions with students on a one-on-one basis or facilitating true interactivity - labs, simulations, projects.
~ Salman Khan
For long-duration exploration missions, NASA is looking for folks with a lot of operational, hands-on experience, people who have been in field-type situations such as military deployments. In my case, I worked in the Congo and in Biosafety Level 4 labs on smallpox.
~ Kathleen Rubins
If you have a border collie, and do your job, you will learn patience. if you have Labs, you will learn to stretch the boundaries of hygiene. I'm told that the original Labs hailed not from Labrador but from Newfoundland, where they worked with tough and tired fisherman who let them hang around but didn't provide organic or vegan dog food. As a result, Labs became scavengers, with little fussiness about what they ate.
~ Jon Katz
Where would Monsanto be without the U.S. farm program and world-class research labs?
~ Dick Durbin
A good idea has to be correct on some basic level, and we value good ideas because they tend to have a high signal-to-noise ratio. But that doesn't mean you want to cultivate those ideas in noise-free environments, because noise-free environments end up being too sterile and predictable in their output. The best innovation labs are always a little contaminated.
~ Steven Johnson
